“Honestly, honestly, hand in heart, a hundred percent, this is the best reception I’ve ever had,” said Ed Sheeran during the Manila leg of his Multiply Tour. I believe him. Because honestly, both hands on heart, a hundred percent, that was the best concert I’ve been to, and I’ve been to A LOT.
True, I’ve said the same of shows past (including that of Fall Out Boy’s and Taylor Swift’s), but I think, unless I manage to see another Ed Sheeran show, this “best” will stick for a lifetime.

As you may have already guessed, I’m a Sheerio, or a big Ed Sheeran fan. So I took a vacation leave on March 12, just so I could get to the Mall of Asia Arena early to get first dibs on official merchandise and line up for the concert early. I was one of the firsts to enter the Arena, and my enthusiasm paid off, because as the lights went down and everyone started running towards the stage, I found myself front and center with only a person between me and the barricade. I couldn't believe my luck.

Christina Perri opened her “Head or Heart” show a Capella style. And that’s one gutsy move.
Front and center, the singer-songwriter sang her first track – “Trust” – with nothing but just her and a mic stand. And the moment she opened herself to sing, out came a voice so crisp, so powerful…so endearing. Truly, a brave move for the 28 year old talent to start her show devoid of bells and whistles. But I guess those are truly Christina’s strengths – her voice and her vulnerability. And indeed, it was a perfect way to establish an entertainingly intimate evening.

English indie rock group, Alt-J will be bringing their world tour to Manila for the first time which will be held on May 2015 at the Theatre in Solaire. They'll be here to promote their current album, "This Is All Yours". Concert details below.

This was the third time that Lamb of God has played in the Philippines (first in 2010 and then in 2012) – and it’s safe to say the crowd were not bored of seeing Randy Blythe and co live.
As the fans piled into the World Trade Centre, the anticipation to see the groove metal band from Virginia, USA was palpable. The closer it got to 9pm when they were due to start, the louder and more frequent the chants of “LAMB OF GOD” got from the crowd.

Get ready to do it again! Closeup brings you to the second annual #CloseupForeverSummer which will be held this May 2015 at the Mall of Asia Concert Grounds. Headlined by one of the hottest EDM superstars today, Martin Garrix and indie pop duo, Angus & Julia Stone. Festival details below:
